项目摘要

DESCRIPTION): The potential to save lives globally through cessation initiatives has been well documented. By the year 2020, if adult consumption were to decrease by 50%, approximately 180 million tobacco related deaths could be avoided. In addition to having immediate potential for saving lives, cessation support is a relatively noncontroversial foot-in-the-door for other tobacco control initiatives and is very timely in light of adoption of guidelines for implementatio of Article 14 of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. There is a major gap between written cessation guidelines and effective implementation. The current proposal will address this gap and will seek to build capacity in Tunisia, a country with a substantial tobacco burden. Tunisia recently ratified the FCTC and is strategically located to reach countries in Northern Africa and the Middle East. We will work through our existing partnership on chronic disease prevention and will leverage resources within the center of excellence for research and prevention of chronic disease in Sousse, Tunisia. Our specific aims include engaging our Tunisian colleagues in formative research including focus groups, surveys, and pilot studies with health professionals and tobacco users and providing multidisciplinary training to health professionals through workshops offered initially for those in Sousse and followed by workshops for national and regional audiences. Our long-term goal is to develop in Sousse an established multidisciplinary training program to increase capacity for implementation of Article 14 in the region and to inform Article 14 implementation more broadly. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The current project meets the goals of the Funding Opportunity Announcement by addressing the critical problem of tobacco cessation through a collaborative multidisciplinary approach that will also build capacity through training of faculty colleagues and through a series of workshops targeted at health professionals. This program of research will help to address the gap between written cessation guidelines and effective implementation.

描述）：通过戒烟举措拯救全球生命的潜力已得到充分证明。到 2020 年，如果成人消费量减少 50%，大约可避免 1.8 亿人因烟草相关死亡。除了具有挽救生命的直接潜力之外，戒烟支持对于其他烟草控制举措来说是相对无争议的一步，而且鉴于《烟草控制框架公约》第 14 条实施指南的通过，它非常及时。。书面戒烟指南与有效实施之间存在重大差距。当前的提案将解决这一差距，并寻求在突尼斯这个烟草负担沉重的国家进行能力建设。突尼斯最近批准了《烟草控制框架公约》，其地理位置优越，可以覆盖北非和中东国家。我们将通过现有的慢性病预防合作伙伴关系开展工作，并将利用突尼斯苏塞慢性病研究和预防卓越中心的资源。我们的具体目标包括让我们的突尼斯同事参与形成性研究，包括与卫生专业人员和烟草使用者进行焦点小组、调查和试点研究，并通过最初为苏塞人员举办的研讨会以及随后为国家和地区受众举办的研讨会，为卫生专业人员提供多学科培训。我们的长期目标是在苏塞制定一个既定的多学科培训计划，以提高该地区实施第 14 条的能力，并为更广泛的第 14 条实施提供信息。公共卫生相关性：当前项目通过多学科协作方法解决戒烟的关键问题，实现了资助机会公告的目标，该方法还将通过对教职员工的培训和一系列针对卫生专业人员的研讨会来建设能力。该研究计划将有助于解决书面戒烟指南与有效实施之间的差距。
